11.3 Separate execution sequence log

Independent of the central logbook in the database, the DNC programs write to the
circular execution sequence log files with the names Programmname0.trc ...
Programmname9.trc located in the ...\Siemens\MCIS\Data\Trace\DNC directory.
For each start of the program and when the log file has reached the configured
size, a new file with the next-higher number at the end of the file name will be
begun; after 9, the numbering starts again at 0. The current log file is the file that
has the most recent date.
Log files can be opened and analyzed with a text editor.
The log files of the individual clients are located on the terminal servers under the
directory ...\Siemens\MCIS\Data\Trace\DNC\Client.
The size (in KB) of the log files can be parameterized in the trace.ini file in the
...\Siemens\MCIS\Data\Trace\DNC directory.
The .ini file contains sections for all MCIS programs that should be logged.
